I think it's worth writing, not for the likes and views, but for the learning process itself. Still stats are interesting. If you know what people liked, most probably you know where you performed well. Though in some cases there can be other factors.
Anyway, if you'd like to have more stats, please try DEV.to Analytics. I wrote a bit more about it here.
How many followers do you have?
7488
How long do you take to write a post on average?
For technical articles, it can be 3-4 hours. For non-technicals, it's about half.
How many views and reactions do you have in total?
Which one was the the post that you think deserved more views?
Basically any or my articles, from the C++ STL Algorithms Tutorial series, like this one.
My technical articles are mostly about C++ which is not the in the mainstream in this community, hence those receive relatively few views. But despite, I love to be here.

absolutely. I always wrote somehow somewhere, be it blog platforms, or paper "diaries" or simple notes in google drive. To note down my thoughts, feelings, ideas, and especially for technical stuff to remember things or track down the learning path.
It was just curiosity - and finding even more reason to write more , well written, technical articles: because if I write something just for myself it can be just a code snippet and a couple of links, if i want to talk about something, i need to somehow explain it better and double check - investigate the topic way more.

i will definetely try out your Dev.to Analytics!!
and as you wrote in your post :
yes, for motivation and for improving,
not to lead me into driven writing.

Thanks posting your nice stats, and kudos to the maintainers of the API that my tool can still work.
Feel free to raise a pull request to update the README!
